Question:
All the newer Gnome distributions seem to configure themselves with two small "taskbars" (panels, I guess) one at the top and one at the bottom.
I prefer the older scheme with one larger one (usually) at the bottom.
When I install Centos5 in the near future I'm going to want to be able to restore the old-style panels. Anybody know what I need to change to make it work in the old way?
Thanks!

Poke around the hidden directory in your profile:
/home/username/.gnome2
There should be some stuff in there that's specific to your customized desktop. If you are running 4.x now, though, I can't say for sure that copying that over would work upgrading from 4 to 5, since things change in different versions of Gnome.
At any rate, look in there. I don't know where else user specific settings are stored for Gnome.

Right click on the panel you don't want, and select "Delete this Panel", then right click on the one you want, select properties and alter the size.
